<description>&#60;p&#62;My middle is my maiden, so I use it a lot, especially professionally.

<description>&#60;p&#62;I haaaaaaaaaaaate my middle name and never use it for anything.  Not even my initial. I don't think it's even on my driver's license.

<description>&#60;p&#62;Not unless something asks for it specifically. I used to have one credit card that had my middle initial on it, but I didn't choose it to appear like that (I don't think).

<description>&#60;p&#62;I go by my middle name. I think my middle name suits me more than my first name. But then again my mom and I have the same first name.

<description>&#60;p&#62;I've never liked mine. There is no reason to use it except on IDs.

<description>&#60;p&#62;Nope. In fact, I often forget that I changed it to my maiden name. It's a little startling to see a different initial there!

<description>&#60;p&#62;I really like my middle name, and use it in my signatures, but nowhere else. I did give it to DD too though

<description>&#60;p&#62;I use either my middle initial or full name on everything- CCs, degrees, filling out stuff. My middle name is the female version of mu dad's middle name so it's sentimental.

<description>&#60;p&#62;I rarely use my whole middle name, but I always include my middle initial when I sign my name. To me, my signature looks naked without it.

<description>&#60;p&#62;When I sign my name I use the initial (of my maiden middle name, now, but I also did it with my old middle name). I also use it that way for some usernames (like my IG is sdmck, the D being my middle initial). &#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Other than that, no. I was kinda meh about my middle name before I changed my maiden name to it, and I'm okay with my maiden name, but I just LOVE the way my first and last names sound together, and the middle just chops it up.

<description>&#60;p&#62;Yep! Both of 'em. My original middle name is now my business name (First Middle Photography) because my last name was way too hard for people to remember/pronounce/spell. When I got married though I decided to drop my original middle name legally and replace it with my maiden name. I use my full current name on any legal documents and also at work (lawyer by day, photog by night/weekend) because I want people I went to law school with or who I dealt with prior to getting married to recognize my name.

<description>&#60;p&#62;Most of the time I forget I have a middle name. I don't ever use it for anything unless something specifically calls for it. I don't mind using it though...it's Caitlin, which is pretty uneventful haha.
